No matter what Elon Musk does, I think he's just signing up to be the next public punching bag. The left will blame him for confusing trolling and pseudoscience for free speech. The right-wing oppression narrative will continue apace as tales of deleted tweets and shadowbans elicit jowl-shaking rage from alt-right neckbeards and tech-illiterate senators.

People will just have a new public figure to blame for whatever imagined injustice they feel was visited on them. And that person just paid 44 billion dollars for the privilege.

Paying someone to stop speaking is probably not something someone who cares strongly about free speech would do. He doesn't get credit for not committing felonies or worse, violating the Twitter ToS.

@previous (Kook !!rcSrAtaAC)
How is trying to pay hush money to someone not anti free speech??? Have I entered the Twilight Zone? It's ok to just admit that Elon doesn't actually believe in the principles of free speech when they come into conflict with his life directly. Everyone's a hypocrite at the end of the day and he's not special in that regard.

We'll need to wait and see what he does with Twitter. My guess is he'll initially be very active but then quickly realize running the site is a tremendous pain in the ass and delegate it to either people who have been there awhile, in which case things will continue as normal, or weird zealots who tank the site and send it down the shitter. Either is fine with me because minichan can just pick up the slack as the world's premiere free speech forum.

Kook is right, it’s a voluntary exchange. Hush money doesn’t restrict speech unless both sides agree to. It’s not like Elon is murdering, banning, or censoring the guy if he doesn’t take the $5000

@previous (Kook !!rcSrAtaAC)
I agree in general. I personally don't really care strongly about him. I think Tesla and SpaceX are cool. I think The Boring Company and Neuralink are probably two big failures in the making. I also think he has spent so much time on Twitter that he thinks he can run it better than the people currently doing it and that seems unlikely to me. The problem with fabulously wealthy people like him is they do not have people they listen to who can tell them when they're getting in over their head. This is one of those scenarios.

And I don't want him to institute policies on twitter that censor the narrative from either side.

If my argument is sound, it will stand on it's own against ANY opposition IF I'm allowed to be heard.

Personally, I want opposing arguments to be uncensored and if Musk or anyone else is willing to supply such a forum, I will be All In!

@previous (J)
I guess we'll have to agree to disagree here but I think paying someone to not tweet things about you is not something that a free speech absolutist like Musk purports to be would do. Once he takes over Twitter (assuming the deal goes through) we'll see how consistently he applies these principles. My guess will be that all speech won't treated the same but we'll need him to fuck up before other people agree apparently.

I think that Anon F and Kook are making Elon out to be a lot more rational and level-headed than he really is. There was that issue a while ago when he threw a tantrum over that diver insulting his useless mini-submarine, there was that thing where he got mad at the media for being critical of his cars and he fantasized about making a website called "Pravda" to shame them in response.

My point is, that I think that his reaction to that Twitter bot was an emotional knee-jerk more than anything, he's known to have strong and disproportionate reactions to things. And Fake anon is correct to point out that his handling of that situation is good reason to expect that his attitude to free speech may not be consistent.

Yes, this is a man we can trust to champion free speech. The guy who hires a PI to try to discredit a guy who insulted him.

This really isn't the same as the Twitter bot and it actually hurts your case. Another example of him throwing a tantrum and trying to shut down someone saying something harmless.

It looks like he was fired for organizing union stuff on company time, but ok.
As someone sitting on the board of the company people are considering unionizing, it isn't considered union busting to say the board, that he sits on, wouldn't agree to stock options through a union negotiation?

He was fired for posting screenshots of employee data from Tesla’s internal systems onto a public Facebook page. Perfectly justified firing

Tesla employees already have stock options… that would have gone away if they unionized because some greedy union-operating corporate entity would come in and automatically throw away that benefit on purpose, and in exchange for nothing. It is a tale as old as, well, labor unions

If it was illegal, why was the case in civil court and not criminal court? Are you confusing California with Thailand? 🤔

Why are you mad about the fact that he is a co-founder?

He was there from the earliest days (less than 8 months after incorporation papers were filed), oversaw the design and production of their first product and is legally allowed to call himself a co-founder. what's the problem, sis?
